Description

Issue brought up by Ian Craggs

"I think it would be worth saying something in the spec about the sending and receiving MQTT packets large enough for the send/receive process to exceed the keepalive interval. It is a case that implementers of both clients and servers tend to forget about until a bug is raised."
